Chapter 216: The First Inquiry into the Secret Room

After returning home, Hou Lin asked Mu Lingyun for a doctor, the injury was not serious, and it was good to recuperate for a few days.

During this time, Hou Lin was also courteous, he poured water for Mu Lingyun tea every day, and he didn't look like a young master at all, but was more like a friend.

"Young master, you don't have to come to see me every day, I'm a subordinate, you don't have to bother so much."

"You don't have to worry about me, you still have to worry about yourself, good people can fall to their feet inexplicably."

"Isn't that why you have to take me to the wilderness?"

"Is that my fault?"

"Don't dare, it's negligence, it's your fault, but this person is a lot of mouthful, I'm afraid it's not good for your reputation."

"My reputation has long been bad, where do I need to be afraid."

Mu Lingyun couldn't resist him, so she could only give up, this was Hou Lin's fifth day of serving her so attentively, she was a little flattered.

"We're brothers now, can't we do this thing?"

Hou Lin was busy washing Mu Lingyun's face with the towel in his hand, and he handed it to Mu Lingyun.

"But in this house, we are still master and servant," she said, smothering her towel.

"You heal your injuries first, and we are a master-servant relationship."

Mu Lingyun was silent, in the past two days, she took advantage of Hou Lin's daily service and probed a lot of words, but Hou Lin always kept silent about important news, she planned to find a time to go to the secret room to find out after her injury was healed.

"Third Young Master, do you know who Master Hou usually interacts with?"

"My father, he has a lot to do with the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee."

"Then I haven't heard of it, what kind of dealings does he have with people from other countries?"

"Cut, he's not a diplomat, how can he have dealings with people from other countries?"

"Oh, I thought that such a big official as Lord Hou would associate with some special officials."

"There are special people, but they are not officials, some time ago, I saw that Yang Guifei in the palace often came to sit down."

"Yang Guifei? What can she do to find Hou Ye? ”

"How would I know, you're a subordinate, asking about something."

Mu Lingyun thought to herself that Yang Guifei was just an unpowerful concubine, what could it have to do with Hou Ye? And with her ability, it is impossible to have anything to do with Yingguo, she thought about it for two or three days, and the injury on her foot finally healed, and Hou Lin didn't come to him again.

On this night, taking advantage of the dark moon and high wind, Mu Lingyun put on his night clothes and touched the door of the ancestral hall to enter.

Following Jin Shaoming's words, she easily opened the door and walked down the underground secret room, everything was the same as Jin Shaoming said, and at the end, it was still the wooden door.

She didn't dare to act rashly, carefully looked at the keyhole on the door, it was a very chic lock, today she came prepared, before going out, she would always learn some side doors,

Mu Lingyun pulled out a small piece of metal from his sleeve, the shape and size of the key was about the same, but there were no such fine key lines on it, and the texture was very soft.

She inserted the metal piece into the lock hole, fixed it for a few seconds, and then pulled it out again, and it was already the approximate shape of a key, as long as she gave this to the master who made the key, there was an identical key.

After retiring, Mu Lingyun quietly returned to the room, as soon as she hid the hard-won things in her hand, Hou Lin pushed the door in, and saw Mu Lingyun dressed up, he was a little vigilant in his heart.

"Where have you been in the middle of the night?"

"It's because I'm really homesick, so I plan to go out of the house at night to visit my family."

"Really? Your family should have slept in the middle of the night, right? ”

"My family will sleep very late, the little one is guilty, please punish the third young master."

Mu Lingyun looked at Hou Lin's keen eyes, didn't dare to look directly, and knelt directly on the ground and begged for mercy.

"Hmph, this kind of thing, don't happen again in the future, here are the rules here."

"The third young master came late at night, but there is something important to look for?"

"I'm going to ask you, I had a cheongsam for you to wash before, why is it gone?"

"Cheongsam... The third young master is going to wear it now? ”

"Not really, I'm just here to ask."

"The little one accidentally broke his clothes, and I want to mend it and send it to the young master."

"Broken? You really don't have enough to accomplish and more than you can lose, what about the clothes? ”

Mu Lingyun handed the clothes to Hou Lin, he saw the clothes and stared, Mu Lingyun quickly knelt down again, not daring to say more.

"What an eye-opener for me, you're better than I thought."

"The third young master forgives the sins, I will definitely try my best to remedy it."

"Excuse me, I'll take this clothes, you come over early tomorrow, I still have something to tell you."

Hou Lin turned around and walked out, he glanced at the ancestral hall, and then at Mu Lingyun who was kneeling behind him, and had a doubt in his heart.

Mu Lingyun hurriedly closed the door and turned off the lights to sleep, it was really frightening.

The next morning, Mu Lingyun arrived at Hou Lin's door early.

"Third Young Master."

"Come in."

Hou Lin has already finished dressing up, waiting for Mu Lingyun.

"What's going on today?"

"I ordered a set of clothes on Qili Street, and ordered a jujube cake at the south gate, oh, there is a donkey meat bun seller on East Street, you can help me bring a copy, and then go to the teahouse where we went last time, please ask the storyteller to come over tomorrow and continue to tell the story."

"These things, I don't want to run all over the city, I can order my subordinates to go."

"Now, aren't you?"

crossed his mouth, and scolded again in his heart.

"The little one, let's go."

"Wait a minute, you patched up yesterday's clothes for me."

Mu Lingyun turned around, a piece of clothing was covered on her face, she gritted her teeth in her heart, and when she was injured, she tried her best to call hard, she was really not a brother.

When she went out to the street, Mu Lingyun's footsteps were also fast, and she got everything done in the morning, she was looking for someone to play the key on the street, and finally in a deep alley, she saw an old man who played the key.

"Old man, I have a key mold here, do you want to type it?"

As he spoke, he took out the metal piece from his pocket, and the old man looked at it over and over in his hand, Yaoyao's head.

"It's not fine enough, and it doesn't necessarily work to make it,"

"Huh? How much time does it take to polish one? ”

"Three days."

"Then trouble grandpa, I'll pick it up in three days."

Although it is unlikely, when it comes to this, it can only be stubborn.

After returning home, Mu Lingyun threw things on Hou Lin's table, and massaged his feet, and Hou Lin was carrying the birdcage into the house.

"That's pretty fast."

Hearing his voice, Mu Lingyun hurriedly got up.

"Third Young Master, this is what you want, and the small ones are all in order."

"It's all yours, take it back."

"Huh?"

"No thanks."

"But it's useless."

"Then tell me, what did you do on the streets?"

"Shopping."

"That's all?"

Mu Lingyun was puzzled, thinking that she really didn't find anyone following her along the way, and gritted her teeth.

"That's all."

"It's yours, go down."

Looking at Mu Lingyun who was walking away, Hou Lin's eyes were sharp, he saw her playing the key with his own eyes, there is no need to hide this kind of thing.

Mu Lingyun, who returned to the room, was vigilant, she was a rough person, but after so many years, she also had a heart, I don't know if she was discovered by Hou Lin.

The three days were coming soon, and Mu Lingyun pretended to go to the street to buy items for himself and hurriedly went out.

found the old man who made the lock, and got the key that was typed out according to the mold, the appearance was indeed more complicated than the normal key, Mu Lingyun didn't know the bottom of his heart when he saw it, and he didn't know until he tried it at night.

"Thank you, old man."

"You're welcome, I'll just try."

She didn't stay long, she went to the street to buy a few things to cover up, and went home.

In the middle of the night, Mu Lingyun came to the wooden door again, took out the copy in his hand, and turned it slightly, and the wooden door opened in response.

In the secret room, all the gold and silver were placed, and the piece of gold was shining, and Mu Lingyun was stunned for a long time when he saw it.

"Master Hou, this dog thief, is all about looting the people's fat and people's ointment, see how I can clean you up."

Mu Lingyun wandered around the secret room, she noticed a brocade box, opened it, and it was full of handwritten letters, which were all evidence of his collusion with the enemy country.

"Little thief, you still dare to come."

Mu Lingyun was looking at the letter in her hand, and when she looked up and saw Hou Lin, she secretly screamed bitterly in her heart, she was about to rush out of the door, but was pointed at her neck by the sharp blade in Hou Lin's hand.

"Take off your mask."

Mu Lingyun was very clever, turned his head sideways, dodged his sword, stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful of ecstasy, and glanced at Hou Lin.

Hou Lin was caught off guard, and he scattered the dust, allowing Mu Lingyun to escape.

Mu Lingyun hurriedly slipped back to the room, changed his clothes, and just turned off the lights and went to bed, Hou Lin came in, very polite.

"You slept?"

"Third Young Master, I've run a lot of places today, and I'm a little tired."

Hou Lin generously entered the door and looked around, but found nothing suspicious, he looked at Mu Lingyun who got up from the bed, with a sincere look.

"Did you see any figures flashing past here?"

"Third Young Master, don't laugh, if the figure flashes by, how can the little one see it?"

"Did you find anything out of the ordinary?"

"The little one slept soundly, and I didn't find out, it was a thief in the house?"

"There were thieves sneaking into the house before, I think it must be him again."

"What? Did the third young master and the thief do it? Didn't get hurt, right? ”

She quickly got out of bed and looked around him.

"It's okay, it's just letting people run."

"Third Young Master, your body is expensive, don't mix this kind of thing in the future."

Hou Lin didn't say anything, he glanced at Mu Lingyun, wanted to say something, but stopped talking.

"I'm going back, you have to be careful yourself."

Mu Lingyun looked at his long and walking figure, and breathed a sigh of relief, her acting skills are really getting better and better, and fortunately, she is running fast, but I am afraid that it will be difficult for her to get evidence now.
